How much do we really pay attention to what is happening,
rather than our thoughts about what is happening? Thoughts and stories are
useful for all kinds of things, but if we mistake them for reality, we will
feel disconnected from our experience, from the world around us, and from other
people.
Listening to, and with, the body we can reconnect with
our actual experience and free ourselves from much of the craving, aversion and
delusion that prevents us from being satisfied with our lives. On this day retreat,
we explore ways to stay in contact with the body's wisdom and expand our
capacity to turn towards what arises with kindness.
These monthly day retreats offer an opportunity to
experience a retreat without leaving the city. Topics vary but usually include
meditation and discussion around a particular topic. April 30 workshop will be
led by a visiting teacher, Nagapriya, who has is specialized on the karma
related topics.
Cost: $75 ($35 low income), or whatever you can afford.
